The Town of Barnstable invites interested individuals to attend an informational meeting to discuss sewer construction plans for the Phinney’s Lane Neighborhoods Sewer Expansion Project. This project will:

- Address septic systems adjacent to Wequaquet Lake and upgradient of Long Pond, Centerville, helping the town to address freshwater pond and lake quality
- Help prevent groundwater pollution near Zone 2 Water Supply Wells
- Expand sewer services to 550 parcels along 53 total roads, adding approximately 8 miles of sewer
Construction is anticipated to commence later this fall, with completion anticipated in late 2029.
The informational session will be held:
